Emergent Diversity
JAMIE
ARPIN-RICCI
Winnipeg : Canada
"Diversity is an
increasingly important value within the emerging church movement.
This commitment to diversity, not only in EC, but also increasingly
in the Body of Christ, is a positive reflection of the health
and growth of Christianity in the world. God is calling us even
deeper. "
Jamie identifies
three themes that the emerging church has to take seriously if
it is to be a missional movement.

This
emerging church thing is dangerous! This month's visitors
to the cafe both have discovered emerging thinking whilst
being part of a more traditional worshipping community -
will life ever be the same again?

Feminine Voice
ERUVANDI
"I
am an articulate, educated woman. I saw places that my gifting
could be used for the glory of God. And slowly, but surely, as
I became more acclimatized to being a Christian, I began to see
there was but a limited sphere where I could acceptably use those
gifts."
Eruvundi asks
if the emerging church will finally offer a fresh approach to
the role of women in the church.

...the
tutor suggested that hymn singing was the point at which everyone
could participate in the service... it doesn't seem like an
appropriate level of participation to me...
